I ordered about 200 dollars worth of food for takeout for me and my family today.
Went to go pick it up and the hostess told me I needed to wear a mask. Texas has lifted the order but individual businesses can still require them. I told her I don't have one and I'm only picking up a to go order. She says I need a mask so I tell her "nah I'm good, just cancel my order for xxxx". I walk out and start driving towards a more based restaurant. Get a phone call from manager who asks if I could come back and they would bring my food out to me. Told her no, I'm not going back I already ordered from another restaurant. She says "you ordered the food, we made it, you need to come pay for it". I just laugh and say no thanks. Enjoy my food and margaritas restaurant staff, hopefully it comes out of your boss's pocket.
Just wanted to share
HELL YEAH!
Make em work then cancel. That’s genius!
Perhaps restaurant shouldn't be run by bunch of pussies, maybe people won't have to find out the bullshit face diaper policy even for pickup order?
It’s a dicey issue. Restaurants have been punished financially more then any other industry.
If you owned a restraint you’d be scared to death of a third shutdown.
Crazy governors are using the health department to punish non-compliant restaurants by revoking liquor licenses and other required licenses.
OP made a good balance of attempting to work with them. If he’s already inside talking she might as well have given him the food. It’s another thing if he was asking for a table etc.
Overly risk averse entrepreneurs fail far more often than they succeed.
To put it another way: fuck what the dictatorship says.
